BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (WBKO) - The State House has passed a bill that would allow school employees to express their religion in a school setting. House Bill 547 would prohibit a school district from punishing an employee for engaging in private religious expression, protected by the First Amendment. Bowling Green is known for its large refugee community with dozens of different religions. The International Center of Kentucky is even based in the city mainly for that reason. Albert Mbanfu, the executive director of the center, said the three main religions among refugees are Christian, Muslim, and Buddhist.
